T21 Alchemy: Stories of Down Syndrome, Parenting and Belonging
Real talk for parents, carers and allies raising children with Down syndrome, SEND or additional needs; newly diagnosed, pregnant, or supporting loved ones. Also for theatre makers exploring how lived experience becomes performance.
Join Oneness Sankara -a Black British mum, playwright, SEND advocate- as she shares raw family experiences (not leaflets), communication breakthroughs, Black SEND realities, and her spoken word musical *T21 Alchemy*.
New episodes cover:
• Communication and language development
• Independence and future planning
• Parenting identity and relationships
• Turning real stories into theatre
If you've wondered "what does this journey actually become?"—this podcast holds that conversation.
*Early episodes (The Purpose Pod) cover personal growth. New T21 Alchemy episodes focus on Down syndrome parenting, SEND advocacy and theatre.*
